Best mattresses for a heavy person

Are you that heavy person looking for a new mattress? No problem, we’ve got a range of recommendations which will suit your needs.

Mattresses have weight limits in the UK, some weight limits may be higher compared to others. I’ve found all the highest weight limits which you can get in the UK.

You’re going to want a mattress which is thick, 25cm deep, and you will want a medium-firm feel from your mattress, to keep your body supported. You may want to get a pocket spring mattress or a memory foam mattress.

You may wear out your mattress faster depending on your weight, so we suggest you get a properly supported mattress to ensure you get that full night's sleep without hurting your back.

So now, let’s get into the top recommendations of mattresses we have.

Our top recommendations for mattresses for heavy individuals are:

1. Memory Foam Mattresses: Super King, King, Double, Single Foam Mattress – Nectar (nectarsleep.co.uk).

Our first recommendation is Nectar Sleep, as they offer the longest warranty and trial period, which I’ve seen in the market across the internet. Nectar Sleep has the type of mattress which are the ones which come in a box, squashed up and as soon as you open the box, the mattress expands. The advantage of Nectar Sleep is that if you change your mind within the first 365 days, you have the option to return your mattress.

Nectar Sleep’s Memory Foam mattress is made of five different layers which aim to support your pressure points.

Some individuals find that the old version of memory foam mattresses made their body temperature rise while they were sleeping. Although, currently brands use names such as adaptive cooling, to ensure that the consumer knows that this is a modern design and that the mattress will keep them cool while they sleep comfortably.

Pros of the Simba Hybrid Mattress

• This mattress is an award-winning hybrid mattress

The Simba Hybrid Mattress is a great option for a couple who are both on the heavy side, as according to the Simba website their mattress can cope with 36 stones. However, keep in mind that the 10-year warranty will only be covered by Simba if you both weigh under 18 stone which equivalates to 144kg.

The Hybrid mattress has a medium/firm tension according to Simba and is mostly foam, but also, has a layer of small springs for that extra comfort.
